Upcoming Community Events

In an effort to increase traffic here and further stimulate discussion I am going to start posting information about community events that might be of interest to readers of this blog. My plan is to focus on events and activities specific to Fort Thomas, and not to try to cover too much ground in this regard. If anyone has a particular event you would like to see highlighted here please let me know.
